    Wuthering Heights of Shirak -the Land of Steppe and Sky YYerevanerevan 22013013 1 Facts About Shirak FOREWORD Mix up the vast open spaces of the Shirak steppe, the wuthering wind that sweeps through its heights, the snowcapped tops of Mt. Aragats and the dramatic gorges and sparkling lakes of Akhurian River. Sprinkle in the white sheep fl ocks and the cry of an eagle. Add churches, mysterious Urartian ruins, abundant wildlife and unique architecture. Th en top it all off with a turbulent history, Gyumri’s joi de vivre and Gurdjieff ’s mystical teaching, revealing a truly magnifi cent region fi lled with experi- ences to last you a lifetime. However, don’t be deceived that merely seeing all these highlights will give you a complete picture of what Shirak really is. Dig deeper and you’ll be surprised to fi nd that your fondest memories will most likely lie with the locals themselves. You’ll eas- ily be touched by these proud, witt y, and legendarily hospitable people, even if you cannot speak their language. Only when you meet its remarkable people will you understand this land and its powerful energy which emanates from their sculptures, paintings, music and poetry. Visiting the province takes creativity and imagination, as the tourist industry is at best ‘nascent’. A great deal of the current tourist fl ow consists of Diasporan Armenians seeking the opportunity to make personal contributions to their historic homeland, along with a few scatt ered independent travelers. Although there are some rural “rest- places” and picnic areas, they cater mainly to locals who want to unwind with hearty feasts and family chats, thus rarely providing any activities.

Eiland and Dickran Kouymjian https://doi.org/10.1093/gao/9781884446054.article.T004089 Published online: 2003 updated bibliography, 26 May 2010 Country in the southern part of the Transcaucasian region; its capital is Erevan. Present-day Armenia is bounded by Georgia to the north, Iran to the south-east, Azerbaijan to the east and Turkey to the west. From 1920 to 1991 Armenia was a Soviet Socialist Republic within the USSR, but historically its land encompassed a much greater area including parts of all present-day bordering countries (see fig.). At its greatest extent it occupied the plateau covering most of what is now central and eastern Turkey (c. 300,000 sq. km) bounded on the north by the Pontic Range and on the south by the Taurus and Kurdistan mountains. During the 11th century another Armenian state was formed to the west of Historic Armenia on the Cilician plain in south-east Asia Minor, bounded by the Taurus Mountains on the west and the Amanus (Nur) Mountains on the east. Its strategic location between East and West made Historic or Greater Armenia an important country to control, and for centuries it was a battlefield in the struggle for power between surrounding empires. Periods of domination and division have alternated with centuries of independence, during which the country was divided into one or more kingdoms.

  • Akhtamar Numero 198 (1 Apr)
    1 Anno 10, Numero 198 on line 1 aprile 2015—XCIX M.Y. Akhtamar Nuove forme, stesso impegno online il sito comunitaarmena.it si rinnova Nell’anno del centenario, più o meno trenta giorni prima della fatidica data del 24 aprile, è partita la nuova avventura del sito www.comunitaarmena.it. A quindici anni dal varo, con quindici anni di affermato punto di riferimento per tutti coloro che hanno voluto informarsi sul “pianeta” armeno. Dopo tre lustri era arrivato il momento di darsi una rinfrescata, di rimettere ordine al calderone di notizie e informazioni accumulatesi in tutto questo tempo; riordinare i criteri di fruibilità delle informazioni creando percorsi più lineari, raggruppando gli argomenti per aree tematiche in una nuova veste più accattivante e stimolante. Rimangono i caposaldi del nostro lavoro (gli appuntamenti, la rassegna stampa, l’in- formazione sugli eventi, la vigilanza, il nostro Akhtamar) ma abbiamo creato delle sezioni dove in maniera chiara e sintetica affrontiamo argomenti importanti come la storia degli armeni o la tematica del genocidio. La novità assoluta è rappresentata dalla sezione “ scuola ” nella quale abbiamo inserito materiale e spunti di riflessione specificatamente destinati al mondo scolastico sul quale vogliamo dedicare ancor più attenzione che in passato. Il nuovo sito non è un punto di arrivo ma semmai un punto di partenza: ci darà slancio per fare ancora di più, arricchirlo di contenuti grazie a una interfaccia Wordpress più WWW.COMUNITAARMENA.IT malleabile alle esigenze di un sito moderno. Ora la parola ai navigatori del web. Sommario Ricordando il cinquantesimo .... 2 La percezione Eurasiatica dell’unio- 3 Bollettino interno ne.

  • Ararat Marz Guidebook
    ARARAT MARZ GUIDEBOOK 2014 ARARAT FACTS ARARAT Ararat is one of Armenia’s 10 provinces, whose capital is Artashat. Named after Mount Ararat, the province borders Turkey to the west and Azerbaijan’s Nakhchivan Autonomous Republic to the south. Two former Armenian capitals are located in this region, Artashat and Dvin, as well as the Khor Virap monastery, significant as the place of Gregory the Illuminator’s 13-year imprisonment and for being the closest point to Mount Ararat within Armenian borders. The province consists of 97 com- munities, known as hamaynkner, of which four are considered urban and 93 rural. Spanning an area of 1995 km2 and home to a population of 311,400 people, its administrative Center is Artashat which is 29km from Yerevan. Ararat borders the following provinces: Armavir to the northwest, Kotayk to the north, Gegharkunik 1. It is rumoured that Sir Winston’s favourite tipple came out of the Ararat valley in the east and Vayots Dzor to the southeast. Ararat also has a border with the city of Yerevan in the north, between its borders with Armavir and Kotayk. Ararat’s moun- tains include the Yeranos range, Vishapasar 3157m, Geghasar 3443m, and Kotuts 2061m, Urts 2445m. The province also has a number of lakes including: Sev, Azat, Armush, and Karalich as well as the Arax, Azat, Hrazdan, Yotnakunk, Vedi, and Artashat Rivers. During the period from 331 BC to 428 AD, the Armenian Kingdom was also known as Greater Armenia (Mets Hayk) and consisted of 15 states. One of those original states was Ayrarat.
